ARX is proud to introduce the e-pre – the ultimate microphone pre-amp for
hard disk recording, designed by audio professionals, not computer engineers.
The all-new e-pre is so much a part of your system that it fits right into a spare
5?” slot in your computer case! It’s the perfect tool for all your day-to-day
recording requirements. No equipment racks to plug in, no masses of cabling to
connect – the e-pre is ready and waiting when you need it.
The e-pre is a studio quality microphone pre-amp using the same internal components
as high end mixing consoles, built into a compact, computer friendly package.
It has controls for:
Input Gain – fully variable from 10dB through to 60dB to suit all types of microphones,
plus switchable 48 V Phantom Power to enable condenser microphones to deliver
their best.
A Contour control for EQ sweetening, providing fast, easy access to a whole range
of useful EQ curves
Output level control – fully variable to match the e-pre’s output to the input of the sound
card. From -10dB consumer cards through to +4dB for professional sound cards, the
e-pre can handle it.
Multiple output connectors match up with any kind of sound card, including mini jacks,
standard jack, RCA (phono) plugs, and even a connector to link to the internal CD ROM
audio input of your sound card (if fitted).
We’ve even fitted a 12 VDC input connector on the rear to enable the e-pre to run from an
external power supply if required (eg for use with notebook computers or stand-alone use).

Any way you look at it, the e-pre by ARX is the total professional microphone pre-amp for
all your hard disk recording needs

e-pre Benefits
Professional Balanced XLR mic input
True 48v phantom power
Runs into the Line input of ANY sound card – uses the card you’ve already paid for
High headroom = clean recordings

Highly versatile and portable, Sound Devices' MM-1 is a single-channel, portable microphone preamplifier with a powerful headphone monitoring function. Proven in mission-critical applications, the high-performance microphone preamplifier uses a transformer-balanced input and output with a bipolar ±15 volt power supply to produce low-noise, low-distortion gain at all switch positions. It features an "unclippable" dual-stage limiter and two-position high-pass filter. Flexible microphone powering provides phantom power at 48 volts or 12 volts and 12-volt T-power. It is powered from two-AA batteries or external 5-18 VDC. The MM-1 is at home in high-definition television production, corporate/industrial environments, radio/television announce booths, and music production. Its headphone monitor is an advantage in applications where communications channels or mix-minus feeds need to be monitored in headphones. The user can monitor both microphone audio and external audio sources in headphones with level control. The MM-1 is designed to be durable. Its aluminum chassis, oversized end panels, machined knobs, and panel mounted connectors assure reliable mechanical operation.
  • Maximum of 66 dB of gain, in eleven discrete steps
  • Dynamic range exceeding 120 dB
  • 10 Hz to 50 kHz audio bandwidth
  • High immunity to RF interference
  • High current line output driver
  • Transformer-balanced input and output
  • Extended range peak limiter via dual opto-isolators makes preamplifier virtually "unclippable“
  • Selectable 48-volt / 12-volt phantom power or 12-volt "T" power
  • High-pass filter @ 80 or 160 Hz, 6 dB per octave
  • Headphone monitoring of microphone audio, monitor audio, or a mix of both
  • Monitor input accepts mono, balanced or unbalanced line-level inputs on 1/4-inch tip-ring-sleeve connector
  • Separate level control of Monitor gain and overall headphone gain
  • Split ear function via DIP switches
  • Internal battery power (two-AA)
  • Excellent battery life with alkaline and NiMH rechargeable batteries
  • External 5-17 VDC powering (plug included)
  • High-strength aluminum chassis with durable belt clip
• Solid housing • RIAA Equalization • High quality components The PRE-101 is a phono pre-amp with RIAA equalization. The tiny signal of magnetic pick-ups is amplified to fit the line-level inputs of mixers or USB sound-cards. Specifications Frequency Response: 20Hz-20KHz RIAA Inputs: RCA Outputs: RCA Input sensitivity: 3mV for 1000 mV output Input Impedance: 47 kOhm Nominal Output Voltage: 0 dBV Max Output voltage: +16 dBu Output impedance: 100-600 Ohms Power supply: 18V AC (adapter included) Dimensions: 40 x 113 x 80 mm (HxWxD) Weight: 0,35 Kg

The PRE-73 Mk2 is the first one-channel low-cost preamp on the market that is using a fully discrete signal path with three separate transformers for the balanced mic input, the line input and the output.

The circuit is very similar to the classical preamp section of the Neve 1073 pre/eq module with a corresponding sound character that is warm, punchy, sweet and musical.
This classical sound has been heard on countless recordings through the years and it is a versatile sound that works very well on most sound sources and in most genres.

The PRE-73 Mk2 has a maximum gain of 80 dB on the mic input and the gain range on the Line input is -20 to + 10 dB. There is also a high-impedance instrument input.

The PRE-73 Mk2 is perfect for almost any signal source, no matter if it's a microphone with a high or low sensitivity (like a passive ribbon mic), a syntheziser or sound module or an electric guitar or bass.

The input impedance of the microphone input can be switched between 300 and 1200 ohms, which makes it possible to affect the tone of most microphones. There is also phase switch and an simple 4-step LED signal level meter.

The output level control makes it possible to make fine gain adjustments and also to overload the main gain stage for more character and then lower the signal to a suitable level before the output stage.

The Mk2 update consists of:
- An unbalanced insert jack (nominal level about 18 dBu) added on the back panel for inserting units like the coming GAP EQ-73, a three band eq.
-  LED meter levels adjusted.
- 600 Ohm termination resistor and jumper added to power supply board (accessible from the inside of the unit).
- Revised Gain switch, turning the know clockwise now increase the gain.
- Reduced noise at high gains by a change to the power supply grounding scheme.

The CPR12 is an easy to use, flexible and multifunctional 10 channel pre-amplifier. Six of these input channels are selectable between Mic / Line level and equipped with a 3 band tone control. The first two can be switched to priority and phantom power. The other four channels are direct line inputs.

Every input channel has its own gain and fader volume control with PFL button which makes it possible to pre-listen each input or output channel with the built-in pre-listening speaker, and can be routed to one or both output channels. This makes the CPR12 a full two-zone system.

Other present features are a priority input, a recording output, separate sub-out channels and the 24 V DC emergency power connection. This last feature makes it possible to power the CPR12 with emergency power when the main power is shut down. In this case, the priority input will automatically mute all input signals, and a evacuation message will be announced. The steel 19" housing has a height of 2 HE.
